The synthesis of methanol from carbon monoxide and hydrogen is carried out in a continuous vapor-phase reactor
Question:
The synthesis of methanol from carbon monoxide and hydrogen is carried out in a continuous vapor-phase reactor at 5.00 atm absolute. The feed contains CO and H2 in stoichiometric proportion and enters the reactor at 25°C and 5.00 atm at a rate of 17.1m3/h. The product stream emerges from the reactor at 127°C. The rate of heat transfer from the reactor is 17.05 kW. Calculate the fractional conversion achieved and the volumetric flow rate (m3/h) of the product stream.
